A delicious and healthy bar that I made even more healthy by subbing the following: 1/4 cup olive oil for the canola. Upping the amount of honey by another 2 T.'s..and using 1/2 cup raisins and 1/2 cup craisins. I also used splenda in place of the regular sugar. I wish I would have added a bit of p.b. as I can never get enough of my protein being a vegetarian. Next time:-)
